THIS IS THE WAY SERIES
Most of us have asked God for something in prayer — we all have. But have you ever stopped to ask, What does God want from me? In this message series, we’ll explore how our lives change when we begin to understand and respond to what God desires from us.
Hebrews 11:1-6
I. BY FAITH, WE COMPREHEND GOD’S REALITY!
Two keywords in the scripture:
–substance
–evidence
Hebrews 11:1; Hebrews 11:3
II. BY FAITH, WE CONNECT TO GOD’S REQUIREMENT!
Hebrews 11:6
God leaves His tracks in three ways:
–naturally (creation)
–spiritually (Bible)
–physically (Jesus)
III. BY FAITH, WE CHASE AFTER GOD’S WORD!
Hebrews 11:6
